My only issue is that people waste their money on a MAC when they use it for basic browsing/email. If that’s what they want, sure. But, when the justification is built on how windows-based machines are subject to exploit, that’s silly. Exactly! Most people use a computer more as a internet appliance. Email, web browsing, instant messaging, etc. You could do that sort of thing over many different types of platforms, hardware and/or software. It’s pretty much down to how much do you want to spend and how much patience do you have for electronic devices, in general. Just to clarify though - I am by no means a Mac fanboi- I use them because I know how to make them work well for what I want to do. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/mac-advice/249398)._
